What is the voltage reference part in the Fluke 87 V?
« on: December 22, 2011, 08:00:21 am »
Hi, I was wondering what is the voltage reference component in the Fluke 87 V?
Which is the specific precision component that gives it it's 0.05% basic DC Voltage accuracy rating?

Cheers.

I think most of the Fluke handhelds use a bandgap reference (not sure the specific one in the 87V).

According to the service manual it's a 1.23v 60ppm band gap  LM285bxz-1.2d26Z

Cool, thank you. Is that Service Manual for the original 87, or the 87V?... Online I could only find the PDF for the service manual of the original 87, which seemed to be quite different in quite a few ways.

Probably the original. Now that I look more closely (just got it an hour ago) the manual (PDF from the guy who sold me the 87-V on eBay) looks pretty old. It says rev 5 3/96

Hmm, yeah '96, that'll be the original. It'll have info in it about calibrating (adjusting) using trim pots, which the 87V doesn't have. Quite a few of the components looked quite different so I'm not sure if they are still using the same voltage ref.

The original 87 was introduced at least as early as 1988:

The 87-III was around 1997

So yeah, a 1996 vintage model would be the original.

Hi Richard, possibly a Linear Technology LT1019 in smd technology.

Which is the specific precision component that gives it it's 0.05% basic DC Voltage accuracy rating?

If anyone is still curious, the service manual for the 87-V/AN says its a LT1790ACS6-2.5. 87-V specs say DC accuracy is +/-(0.05%+1).

I can't find a voltage reference part for 87-IV, but basic DC accuracy is quoted as 0.025%.
